Revenue from investment banking slumped but grew in the lender's retail and corporate divisions on higher interest rates. Deutsche Bank shares were up 7% in morning Frankfurt trade as analysts cited positive news on potential buybacks and dividends. Though earnings dropped, Deutsche recorded its 13th consecutive profitable quarter, a notable streak after years of hefty losses.

Third-quarter net profit was 1.031 billion euros ($1.06 billion), above an analyst consensus of quarterly net profit attributable to shareholders of 997 million euros, according to LSEG data. The bank's third-quarter net profit was down 8% on the previous year and up 35% on the quarter, amid ongoing struggles in the lender's investment unit. It also said it had scope to release up to an additional 3 billion euros in capital and would increase and accelerate shareholder distributions. The provision for credit losses was 200 million euros, compared to 350 million in the same quarter of last year. Analysts at UBS said Deutsche Bank had delivered a "major improvement in capital" and "robust operational performance," flagging that pre-tax profit of 1.723 billion euros was 9% above consensus.

London CNN —Shares in Deutsche Bank surged nearly 7% Wednesday after it said strong earnings meant it could pay out more cash to shareholders over the next two years than previously anticipated. The bank said it expected to buy back more of its shares — a move which typically juices a company’s stock price — next year. It marks a striking turnaround for the bank following years of scandal, mass layoffs and regulatory fines that have weighed on its reputation, and its stock price. Shares have nearly doubled since hitting a record low in March 2020 but have still cratered 67% over the past decade. The Fed found that Deutsche Bank had made insufficient progress since 2018 to tighten its anti-money laundering controls, among other failures.

U.S. Bankruptcy Judge David R. Jones resigned from the Southern District of Texas bench on Sunday. Photo: reuters tv/ReutersJudge David R. Jones became the nation’s leading bankruptcy judge by making his court an attractive place for troubled businesses to face their creditors. His sudden departure over a previously undisclosed romantic relationship taints that legacy. Jones turned his Houston courtroom into the top landing spot for big bankruptcies over the past decade by appealing to corporate management teams and their high-priced advisers. He handled more major corporate bankruptcies than any other judge in recent years, including department stores JCPenney and Neiman Marcus and oil-and-gas driller Chesapeake Energy .

AdvertisementAdvertisementThe stock market is poised to disappoint investors over the coming months and into next year because S&P 500 earnings growth estimates are too optimistic, according to JPMorgan's quant guru Marko Kolanovic. Wall Street consensus expects S&P 500 earnings per share to deliver 4% year-over-year growth in the third-quarter, according to the note. Kolanovic doesn't expect much to change in 2024, arguing that Wall Street analysts are still too optimistic about the potential for earnings growth. Consensus estimates suggests that the S&P 500 will grow its earnings per share by 12% next year. Kolanovic is sticking by his year-end S&P 500 price target of 4,200, pointing to potential downside of 4% from current levels.

A civil complaint alleges that federal bankruptcy judge David Jones, who mediated the Tehum bankruptcy, is in a romantic relationship with Elizabeth Freeman, who represented YesCare in the bankruptcy. Van Deelen's case was ultimately "removed" to Jones' bankruptcy court, according to Van Deelen's complaint. The document alleges that, while working the McDermott case, Freeman was Jones' "live-in girlfriend" in a home worth more than a million dollars. According to the complaint, the letter detailed the "corruption involving Judge David R. Jones" and his romantic relationship with Freeman. Judge Marvin Isgur, another bankruptcy judge in the court, later denied it.

The stock market isn't going to recover from its recent rout soon as three headwinds remain, according to JPMorgan. The bank highlighted that valuations are still too high, and interest rates are too restrictive. Investors have entered "extreme fear" mode as interest rates surge to a new cycle-high. "Our cautious outlook will likely remain in place as long as interest rates remain deeply restrictive, valuations expensive, and the overhang of geopolitical risks persists," JPMorgan's Marko Kolanovic said. The CNN Fear & Greed Index has entered "extreme fear" territory over the past week as investors fret about high interest rates.

That was close, but in the end Congress found a way to avert a government shutdown. “That said, we still look for the gradual deceleration in labor market conditions to continue in the coming months,” Bullard added. Collectively, the three reports will show whether the labor market is slowing – and by just how much. The week will also reveal whether the markets have settled down following the aversion of a government shutdown and concern over rising interest rates in the wake of the Fed’s pause. “The continuation of the disinflation process suggests that the Fed may not need to hike interest rates again this cycle.”

"We are making bold decisions to meet our commitments to our shareholders," Fraser, 56, said in a statement. The latest changes have already eliminated 35 committees, Fraser said, citing an example of efforts to reduce bureaucracy. Job cuts are expected, but the bank did not estimate the number of positions being eliminated or the financial impact, sources familiar with the matter said. "Investors are only going to give Citigroup credit for hard numbers meeting their goals," said Eric Compton, banking analyst at Morningstar. Citi is eliminating layers in former divisions Institutional Clients Group and Personal Banking and Wealth Management.

Economist Stephanie Pomboy has warned of the economic risks signaled by rising corporate bankruptcies in the US. First-half US corporate bankruptcies surged to the highest level since 2010, per S&P data. "It's really something, listening to johnny-come-latelys parroting my talking points on corporate bankruptcies (which none of them saw coming 6 mo's ago). If they did, they'd be calling for a fiscal & monetary response that makes 2008-9 look like peanuts," Pomboy wrote. This is not the first time Pomboy has raised concerns of looming economic and market risks in 2023.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermid Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Sept 8 (Reuters) - Rising U.S. business bankruptcies may raise a red flag in what otherwise appears like an economy now impervious to rising interest rates. Commenting on the numbers, insolvency research organisation ABI blamed elevated interest rates, price inflation and a resumption of student loan payments as just some of the headwinds causing stress. That partly mirrors some of built-in household resilience to rising rates related to long-term fixed-rate borrowings and still-high cash savings that now earn significantly higher rates of interest now too. And that 10% - accounting for more than 60% of index market cap - had seen no rise in net interest payments so far in the Fed campaign. But creeping insolvencies among the smaller firms - many of whom have been dubbed 'zombies' for years due to their survival solely on low interest rates - may be a better reflection of what's starting to happen at the coalface of the economy.

The collapse in cryptocurrency prices last year forced a procession of major firms into bankruptcy, trigging a government crackdown and erasing the savings of millions of inexperienced investors. But for a small group of corporate turnaround specialists, crypto’s implosion has become a financial bonanza. Lawyers, accountants, consultants, cryptocurrency analysts and other professionals have racked up more than $700 million in fees since last year from the bankruptcies of five major crypto firms, including the digital currency exchange FTX, according to a New York Times analysis of court records. Large fees are common in corporate bankruptcies, which require complex and time-intensive legal work to untangle. Every dollar in fees is deducted from the pool of funds that will be returned to creditors at the end of the bankruptcies.

Minneapolis CNN —For the first time in more than 12 months, the pace of consumer price hikes accelerated on an annual basis. The Consumer Price Index rose 3.2% for the year through July, up from June’s 3% annual increase, according to data released Thursday by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Core CPI, which excludes the more volatile food and energy prices, increased 0.2% from June and was up 4.7% from the year-ago period. July is the the fourth consecutive month that annual core CPI has eased, and the 4.7% rate landed 0.1 percentage points below consensus expectations. Shelter prices rose 0.4% month on month and were up 7.7% for the year ending in July.

The Teamsters union said 22,000 of its members were out of work despite making significant concessions on wages and pension benefits in labor negotiations with the nearly 100-year-old company, which filed for bankruptcy on Sunday. Yellow has blamed the Teamsters' opposition to its internal reorganization efforts for its collapse. The union warned that the bankruptcy could mean they will not receive bargained-for retirement benefits or severance pay. "Corporate bankruptcy legislation in the U.S. is a joke," Teamsters General President Sean O'Brien said in a statement. U.S. bankruptcy law currently prioritizes repayment of up to $15,150 in wages per employee, according to bankruptcy attorney George Singer, who is not involved in Yellow's case.

The United States is entering a new economic era as the Federal Reserve hikes its benchmark interest rate. As interest rates climb, economists say financial conditions are headed back to being more normal. Government bonds, Treasury securities and savings accounts all return very little yield when interest rates are low. At the same time, low interest rates increase the value of stocks, homes and Wall Street firms that make money by taking on debt. "Barring a catastrophe, I don't think we'll see lower interest rates any time soon," said Mark Hamrick, Washington bureau chief at Bankrate.com.
